About Martia

Martia also addresses concerns around self-esteem, motivation, and major life transitions.
Her approach is respectful and straightforward, with an emphasis on meeting each person where they are. Martia builds a personalized plan with each client instead of using a one-size-fits-all method.
Background and approach
She listens carefully and adjusts conversations to match what feels most useful for the individual. Sessions aim to identify clear, manageable steps that fit a person’s daily life. She draws on client-centered methods to keep the client’s experience central.
Motivational interviewing techniques help when someone wants to increase their drive or make changes. Elements of existential therapy support exploring meaning and values during difficult transitions. Martia presents herself as supportive and empowering.
She emphasizes practical progress and small changes that add up over time. The tone in sessions is compassionate and down-to-earth, designed to help people build confidence and coping skills. Parents and caregivers looking for help with family or parenting stress can expect straightforward guidance and active listening.
Martia works with each person to set realistic goals, practice skills, and build momentum toward healthier daily routines.
Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life
Client-centered therapy puts the client’s experience at the center of every session. The therapist listens closely, follows the client’s lead, and works to create a space where someone can speak openly about what matters most. This approach helps when someone needs understanding and a tailored plan rather than a fixed agenda.Motivational interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change. It uses focused questions and reflective listening to build motivation and resolve ambivalence. This method is often helpful for issues like addictions, low motivation, or making big behavior changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. From that conversation, she will recommend tactics and adjust them over time so the plan fits the client’s needs and life circumstances.
Online therapy keeps sessions flexible through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to continue work during life transitions. The range of options supports follow-up between sessions, quick check-ins, and ways to practice skills outside of live appointments.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Existential Therapy
Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
Motivational Interviewing
A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
